Guns like AK-47 and AR15.
Simple right?

I'm calling this a lie and not just being wrong. Most Americans are against a gun ban.

Like I said, relax. Nobody is gonna touch responsible gun legislation. Gun lobby is obviously well funded. $$$$
Me thinks you all feel a little guilty. Maybe the blood coming out of schools makes you wonder if blowing up cans and targets is really worth it?

Answer your own question, which guns are being used for mass murder? I'll bet you'll be wrong again.

Maybe the Politburo could show us how it works by disarming themselves. That could be a thing

IRS Hiring More Armed Tax Enforcers in All 50 States

The Internal Revenue Service (IRS) is hiring armed tax agents nationwide to bolster the ranks of its criminal investigations division as the Biden administration seeks to beef up enforcement of tax laws with $80 billion in new funding.

IRS Commissioner Danny Werfel confirmed during a Thursday hearing of the House Ways and Means Committee that the IRS Criminal Investigations (IRS-CI) unit plans to hire additional staff who are authorized to carry guns.

Werfel was responding to a question from Rep. Adrian Smith (R-Neb.) about whether an estimated 360 new armed agents would be hired per year over the next five years for a net gain of 1,200 after attrition due to resignation and retirement.

The IRS replied that Smith’s estimate sounds “about right,” though he added that they would not be used to increase the number of tax audits.

“Our CI division or Criminal Investigation Division, they do not conduct audits,” Werfel said. “What they do is, they are investigating acute issues of fraud and tax evasion. And typically, they’re armed when they’re putting themselves in danger.”..

For the math challenged Obammy acolytes, that would leave a mere 7 states without armed IRS agents. I doubt that it will be "cute" to see what they include in "acute"

Maybe you have heard of this recent incident.

Man who killed 5 neighbors in Texas 'could be anywhere,' sheriff says
The suspect, Francisco Oropeza, killed the five victims after one asked him to stop shooting rounds in his yard, San Jacinto County Sheriff Greg Capers said.

CLEVELAND, Texas — Authorities are searching for a man accused of fatally shooting five of his neighbors, including an <OP edit: banned mention of non-voting age person> , in their Texas home after one asked him to stop firing rounds in his yard.

The suspect, 38-year-old Francisco Oropeza, was armed with an AR-15 semi-automatic black rifle when he went to the home in the Trails End area in Cleveland around 11:30 p.m. Friday and opened fire, the San Jacinto County Sheriff’s Office said.

On Saturday, authorities believed they had the suspect within a 2-mile or so search area but later said he may have slipped past it after they found his cellphone and clothing.

"He could be anywhere now," San Jacinto Sheriff Greg Capers said at an afternoon news conference.

James Smith, the special agent in charge of the FBI's Houston-area office, urged anyone who spots the suspect to call 911.

"We consider him armed and dangerous," he said. "He is out there, and he's a threat to the community."

Capers identified the five people killed as Sonia Argentina Guzman, 25; Diana Velazquez Alvarado, 21; Julisa Molina Rivera, 31; Jose Jonathan Casarez, 18; and Daniel Enrique Laso, <OP edit: banned mention of non-voting age person>.

He said earlier all were from Honduras...

So it seems rational to implement common sense and effective (Left-tards always leave out that last part somehow) gun control. I would propose the we should implement a law banning Hispanic Foreign Nationals from drinking and possessing firearms. The proposal would include placing officers or armed IRS agents, outside of liquor stores to scoop any that "seem" to fit the description and search them, their vehicles and homes for firearms and confiscate them, while placing those persons in custody.

Also, in an acknowledging nod to Liberal fucktardery, those that would be caught up in the snare would have to "prove" that they are innocent of the claimed charges levied. WTF, it's not like they are bound by our Constitution anyway. Foreign nationals certainly don't fall under the "under the jurisdiction of" clause of the 14th amendment.

Epilogue: You see, the part that whizzes on past the Lefty-Loons is this: It's not the firearm that needs to be controlled, it's the person wielding the firearm to harm others. Sorry (Not Sorry), didn't mean to make this all about reality - after all, Common Sense is a refreshing concept.

Well dang. Already need to make a slight adjustment to the below proposal to include similar treatment for those that aid and abet these perpetrators.

EXCLUSIVE: Mexican Migrant Wanted for Murder of Five Hondurans Deported 3 Times, Says Texas Sheriff

CLEVLAND, Texas — Immigration officers deported the Mexican man wanted in connection to Friday night’s alleged murder of five Honduran nationals on three occasions, according to the Texas sheriff leading the investigation. The most recent removal came in 2016...

Seems as though Obamma-Lamma-Ding-Dong aided and abetted the worm. Probably had Eric Holder sell him the rifle even.

Shoot! Howdy! Nearly forgot to mention: they have an $80,000 bounty, err uhhmm, reward on the dude(ette). One might be able to fill up on a tank of gas in the Biden economy with that kind scratch.

Gallup poll for one. I know you can find others, It’s not that hard. It’s around 60%, but It doesn’t matter dude, nothing is gonna change and you’ll still get to blow shit up. Hee Haw!!

Obviously the number quoted is garbage. Besides, how can you claim the gun lobby is so overwhelming while claiming the 60% clap-trap?

Anyway, let's apply simple math for a moment. To do this we'll even use your 60% figure, which is 6 out of 10, reduced down to 3 out of 5 - which ain't enough to Git 'er Done. Why or why not, you might wonder. Well... because we ain't no Democracy, we be a Constitutional Republic and the 2nd amendment is right there in ye olde Bill of Rights, so the threshold to change is 3 out 4 States. The whole State and not a fraction thereof. That's how math works in a Constitutional Republic.

A-N-D, guess what? 27 whole States have already adopted Constitutional carry laws. Maybe the immigration laws for China are a bit looser these day. Try it, you'll like it Comrade.
